This seems a bit similar to Melodics[1], except open source and it actually uses the standard notation.
I know how to read music and started taking classical lessons as an adult. Some time last year a friend recommended me to check out Melodics. It has 3 instruments: keys, pads (finger drumming), drums. I've played pads for few mont;hs, that was good, I've felt it improved my timing and rhythm skills quite a bit. Then I switched to keys. I didn't really like that; it felt like I'm mindlessly repeating whatever is on the screen instead of internalising music. OTOH, when playing pads it felt that something stays in my head after playing. So I guess this may be useful to some people.
For me it'd be more interesting to have some sort of memory trainer - I play something on screen few times, then I replay from memory and app shows me a diff maybe? Or when I'm learning a piece, it would give me a challenge "play bars 21-25 both hands" or "play bars 19-23 left hand only".
This is just what I needed. I just bought an electric keyboard last week and have practiced with Melodics every day since (the free version, so 5 minutes every day :P), but I have some issues with things like how it just keeps going if you mess up or are too slow and the fact that it doesn't use sheet music or let you use your own music (granted, I haven't looked into the subscription version's features yet).
I just opened this and spent 20 minutes trying to play 4 bars I wrote a year ago in MuseScore. I am definitely a noob at playing, hahaha. I always figured being able to play in real-time isn't of much value, but I'd like to be able to improvise and use a piano to enter notes when composing at least, and then I saw some of Lionel Yu's videos and bought a keyboard...

I definitely appreciate the auto-replay, simultaneous note count limit, waiting until you hit a key (both at the start and mid-song if you're slow), and scoring.
>The software is not ‘open source’, we have not yet decided on how we plan to go forward with this project in the longer term, but the code is on GitLab and if you want to see what makes it tick or suggest improvements then of course you are more than welcome to do so.
